More copies of this ISBN:From a Logical Point of View: Nine Logico-Philosophical Essays, Second Revised Editionby W. V. Quine
Synopses & ReviewsReview:This volume of essays has a unity and bears throughout the imprint of Quine's powerful and original mind. It is written with the felicity in the choice of words which makes everything that Quine writes a pleasure to read, and which ranks him among the best contemporary writers on abstract subjects. Review:Professor Quine's challenging and original views are here for the first time presented as a unity. The chief merit of the book is the heart-searching from which it arose and to which it will give rise. In vigour, conciseness, and clarity, it is characteristic of its author. About the AuthorW. V.
